+These are temporary identifiers. If the cave is big enough, and after an initial survey, we will apply to the Austrians for an official number. These are usually batched up and requested over the winter after the expedition. When we receive the official "kataster" number, we edit our records. E.g. Homecoming had to be renamed from <b>2018-dm-07</b> to <b>1626-356</b>.
